Verbose Tooltips
“Enables verbose tooltips for more detailed information. Allows documentation to be built into the add-on, Switches between concise one line tool tips and verbose multi line tool tips. Only affects one button now giving clearer tool tips for the ‘Bake Anim’ button.. But every feature request for more information or error received from the add on that is reported will cause us to update the tooltips with this system to make them clearer. Even adding detailed documentation soon to make it easier to upload characters to Mixamo and rig successfully.
Create Control Rig
“Generate a control rig from the selected Mixamo skeleton. Settings for ‘Create Control Rig’ below now supplied directly on panel which saves a click when creating a control rig.”
Apply Animation: “Bake animation to the control bones on import. IK Arms: “Use IK for the arms on import, otherwise use FK.” IK Legs: “Use IK for the legs on import, otherwise use FK.”
Zero out rig
“Delete all keyframes and set every bone to (0,0,0) rotation. Great, if you need your character back to the state it was in when you added the rig initially.”
Edit Control Shape
